Metric Averages are not averages
--------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4369
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4369
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: metrics
    Affects Versions: 0.18.1
            Reporter: Brian Bockelman


Metrics averages are not averages; instead of updating the metric with the 
average number periodically, Hadoop metrics *increments* the metric.

I.e., each update we have value = old_value + current average.  Instead, we 
want each update to have value = current_average.

Patch will be attached momentarily.
